I feel for the guy*. Shows all the signs of tiredness with lots of slow speed falls. Plus clearly doesn't trust himself at taking on mud and water with any speed. But he kept his emotions in check despite the dents to himself and his ego and the final line about going for a brew was a classic.

* I will admit to one (unnecessary) chuckle when the camera was in the long grass. Tut!

The ride did not look that much fun though. But yep, "thumbs up" for Percy Verence.

First ride I ever did when I bought a full suspension bike, didn't come close to cleaning it. Lovely terrain but slightly awkward to do as a loop and probably better as a run than a ride. Assuming it hasn't changed much lately
